[QUOTE="norvin998, post: 30876, member: 40"] Hi Ian. It was much easier than I had anticipated. I was dreading the operation in case I damaged the brittle mainshaft threads and of course only the broken end is visible. It came loose with a centrepunch and a few taps of the hammer and I had to use stilsons to wind the remains over the slightly distressed threads on the end of the shaft, sounds more brutal than it was in reality. Once the hex has gone the spring tension is released and the cylindrical part is loose on the shaft. Good job i hadn't loctited it. Les. [/QUOTE]
